Spades

A friendship like ours, is one to be kept A treasure in the sands of our lives Buried deep, under cover, until we first met and the spades to uncover it arrived Spades made of laughter Spades made of tears that sought out this treasure that we've held for years But this treasure held wisdom and opinion too and by not really listening I fell out with you We took back our spades, from where they'd been left and started to dig in the sand. we buried that treasure, right where it was found and our reasons, I don't understand So give me this moment to hand back your spade Lead you, by the hand, to our beach and unnearth the treasure, we so willfully lost And this time our friendship we'll keep.
